Want to take a vacation? Need a break? Or maybe, you just need someone to help watch over things?  I have been doing just that. Staying at your homestead or ranch caring for all your animals and/or garden while you do your traveling. I am currently located in California, and am willing to travel to a degree (open for discussion).

E-mail or telegram me ( @trublu87 if you want to talk  to me about it further.

I travel between homesteads/ranches and homestead sit when you are unable to care for it yourself.  I stay at your homestead/ranch short term, most of my clients just want a vacation or need to travel for one reason or another (a funeral was for one client).  I even had a client that broke his leg so he was unable to tend to his animals.  I came and stayed for a few days until his brother could make it from a few states away.  I take care of all of your daily chores, and help out around your homestead as much as I can while I'm there.

My pay is scaled, based on the amount of work.  I mostly travel on the west coast, but will consider other parts of the country.  I'm hoping to get a few jobs lined up in the Midwest, Ozarks, or  Appalachia. I usually charge per day but can discuss week pay or month pay if you need longer term help.  

If interested please message me with your area, what kind of animals you have, and what kind of leave term you are thinking.

What a great idea, a bit like 'house sitting' in a town.
 
Normally trees don't drive trucks. Does this tiny ad have a license?
